Moth is a cool VMware image with a set of vulnerable Web Applications and scripts, that can be used:
1. Testing Web Application Security Scanners
2. Testing Static Code Analysis tools (SCA)
3. Web Application Security

After reading “anantasec-report.pdf” the motivation which is included in the release file which you are free to download. The main objective of this tool is to give the community a ready to use testbed for web application security tools. For almost every web application vulnerability that exists in the wild, there is a test script available in moth.
It is a great learning and testing tool to cross test your appliaction and other tools for POC purposes
There are three different ways to access the web applications and vulnerable scripts included in moth:
1. Directly
2. Through mod_security
3. Through PHP-IDS (only if the web application is written in PHP)
Both mod_security and PHP-IDS have their default configurations and they show a log of the offending request when one is found. This is very useful for testing web application scanners, and teaching students how web application firewalls work. The beauty is that a user may access the same vulnerable script using the three methods; which helps in lot of learning process.
